SPAE: Spectrally Guided Autoencoder for Pretrained Visual Latents

Yibin Huang, Jixiang Hong, Zongzhao Li et al.

Latents from vision foundation models (VFMs) are semantically rich and well suited for visual understanding. Recent representation autoencoder methods such as RAE have shown that they can provide promising latent spaces for image generation. However, VFM latents remain difficult to model directly: DiT-generated latents exhibit spectral mismatch with encoder latents, especially in high-frequency components. Our channel-wise spectral analysis further reveals that these high-frequency components are diffusely distributed across latent channels and entangled with semantic information, making the latent space difficult for DiT to model. To address these challenges, we propose SPAE, latent adaptation framework for generation. Specifically, SPAE employs a compact bottleneck to distill stable semantic information while suppressing high-frequency components, thereby improving the alignment between DiT-generated latents and encoder latents. In addition, we apply a channel-wise masking strategy to promote the decoupling of semantic information and high-frequency details across bottleneck channels. Experiments show that SPAE achieves a favorable balance among visual understanding, generation quality, and reconstruction fidelity.

TIDE-MC: Two-Sided Interpolative Decomposition for Billion-Scale GPU Matrix Completion

Chengying Huan, Yubo Wang, Pinhuan Wang et al.

Matrix completion supports large-scale recommendation and scientific computing, yet existing GPU solvers commonly assume that the observed matrix or its dense factors fit in device memory. On real workloads, this assumption leads to out-of-memory failures or severe PCIe overhead under naive paging. We present TIDE-MC, a bounded-memory GPU framework built on Two-Sided Interpolative Decomposition (TSID). TSID uses a sampled template submatrix as an anchor for reconstructing the full low-rank matrix, allowing computation and storage to scale with the template and active data chunks rather than the complete matrix. TIDE-MC realizes this formulation through two execution stages. First, a conflict-free synchronization engine recovers the template using parallel factorization and hierarchical gradient aggregation. Second, a chunked reconstruction pipeline extends the recovered template to the remaining matrix while overlapping PCIe transfers with GPU computation. An asymmetric gradient-clipping scheme stabilizes mixed-precision Tensor Core execution. Across 15 benchmarks, TIDE-MC completes workloads that cause existing GPU solvers to run out of memory. Compared with the evaluated state-of-the-art baselines, it achieves up to 11,647x speedup, reduces peak memory usage by up to 8.5x, and lowers reconstruction error by up to 99.7%. These results show that template-anchored decomposition and stage-specific GPU execution can scale matrix completion beyond device-memory capacity.
